What To Expect
-
Initial Consult and Forms
You will meet with Dr. Hannah for a Free Consultation to see if this is a good fit for you. You complete intake forms to help us better understand your child's strengths and weaknesses. An estimate on number of sessions is provided.
-
Diagnostic Interview
You and your child will complete interviews with our child psychologist from the comfort of your home. The interviews will be approximately 75 minutes total via HIPAA compliant software. A treatment plan will be developed.
-
Counseling Sessions
Your child will participate in counseling to learn coping strategies for their current difficulties. Evidence-based modalities are always used to ensure treatment leads to good results. You will likely participate in some sessions as well.
-
Completion
The number of sessions varies based upon your child's needs. Treatment will be completed once you feel confident in your skills and your child's behavior has significantly improved.
